It is the basic principle of Marxism that any attempt to reconcile capital and labor so that they both co-operate in peace and prosperity is a betrayal of communism.
Fulton J. Sheen
If there is continuity in the universe, it is fitting that there should be intelligent beings without bodies which are called angels.
Fulton J. Sheen
If you do not live what you believe, you will end up believing what you live.
Fulton J. Sheen
Baloney is flattery laid on so thick it cannot be true, and blarney is flattery so thin we love it.
Fulton J. Sheen
Books are the most wonderful friends in the world. When you meet them and pick them up, they are always ready to give you a few ideas. When you put them down, they never get mad when you take them up again, they seem to enrich you all the more.
Fulton J. Sheen
Calamity, war, famine, plague, death, adversity, disease, injury do not necessarily produce repentance. We may become better in a calamity but it does not necessarily make us repent. The essence of repentance is that we cannot be repentant until we confront our own self righteousness with God's righteousness.
Fulton J. Sheen
Sometimes the only way the good Lord can get into some hearts is to break them.

Do mathematics have a relation to reality or are they only a mathematical symbol?
Fulton J. Sheen
Freedom that ignores the transcendent difference between good and evil ends in the denial of freedom itself.
Fulton J. Sheen
Unless souls are saved, nothing is saved there can be no world peace unless there is soul peace. World wars are only projections of the conflicts waged inside the souls of men and women, for nothing happens in the external world that has not first happened within a soul.
Fulton J. Sheen
When we die to something, something comes alive within us. If we die to self, charity comes alive if we die to pride, service comes alive if we die to lust, reverence for personality comes alive if we die to anger, love comes alive.
Fulton J. Sheen
Civilization is always in danger when those who have never learned to obey are given the right to command.
Fulton J. Sheen
The old liberal rebelled against taxation without responsibility, the new liberal wants the taxation as a handout without responsibility.
Fulton J. Sheen
The Rosary is the best therapy for these distraught, unhappy, fearful, and frustrated souls, precisely because it involves the simultaneous use of three powers: the physical, the vocal, and the spiritual, and in that order.
Fulton J. Sheen
No man discovers anything big if he does not make himself small.
Fulton J. Sheen
All worry is atheism, because it is a want of trust in God.
Fulton J. Sheen
Communism is the final logic of the dehumanization of man. The industrial civilization of the Western world has no intent to destroy man's freedom or to deny his personality. But Communism does. Denying God, it reduces man to a robot.
Fulton J. Sheen
The way not to lead a monotonous life is to live for others.
Fulton J. Sheen
Every moment comes to you pregnant with divine purpose . . . . Once it leaves your hands and your power to do with it as you please, it plunges into eternity, to remain forever what you made it.
Fulton J. Sheen
Never forget that there are only two philosophies to rule your life: the one of the cross, which starts with the fast and ends with the feast. The other of Satan, which starts with the feast and ends with the headache.
Fulton J. Sheen
